WORK-SQUARE

Work-Square is a project in Kurtkoy, one of the most up and coming, value appreciating neighbourhoods in Istanbul.The project gets its name from the piazza in the middle that attracts people form one of the main crossing streets of the neighbourhood. This piazza surrounded by a continious block which has different number of floorsthat provides the a dynamic effect. In order to interpret the need of living close to business and shopping places into our design we created a block of 349 flats,organised in a square plan with a courtyard in the middle, and interestingly, having a green terrace between the courtyard and the residences in order to isolate these two in means of comfort zones.
